On the integral $int_{0}^{1/2}frac{text{Li}_3(1-z)}{sqrt{z(1-z)}},dz$

This questions is related to my previous one.




I am interested in a explicit evaluation in terms of Euler sums for
$$ int_{0}^{pi/4}text{Li}_3(cos^2theta),dtheta = frac{1}{2}int_{0}^{1/2}frac{text{Li}_3(1-z)}{sqrt{z(1-z)}},dz.$$




It is not difficult to show that
$$ int_{0}^{color{red}{1}}frac{text{Li}_3(1-z)}{sqrt{z(1-z)}},dz =-frac{pi^3}{3}log(2)+frac{4pi}{3}log^3(2)+2pizeta(3)tag{A}$$
but I have not managed to make a wise use of the trilogarithm functional identities for computing
$$ int_{0}^{1/2}frac{text{Li}_3(z)}{sqrt{z(1-z)}},dzstackrel{text{IBP}}{longrightarrow}int_{0}^{pi/4}thetacot(theta)text{Li}_2(sin^2theta),dtheta quadtext{or}quadint_{0}^{1/2}frac{text{Li}_3(z)-text{Li}_3(1-z)}{sqrt{z(1-z)}},dz ,$$
which would have solved the problem. One might need substantial extensions of the result about $mathcal{I}(a,b)$ proved here by nospoon. I am expecting the integral above to be related with Euler sums with (total) weight five. Maybe the shifted-Fourier-Chebyshev expansion of $text{Li}_3(x)$ over $(0,1)$ is already known in the literature, but I have not been able to find it.

  • @dan_fulea: You are right, I forgot to add it. The hypergeometric tag is due to the fact that such integral gives a closed form for a peculiar $phantom{}_5 F_4$ with half-integer parameters.

This is meant to be just a comment (too large to add it in the comments section)



$$I=operatorname{Li}_4left(frac{1}{2}right)+frac{2}{3}sum_{n=2}^{infty}(-1)^{n-1}frac{n(overbrace{H_n^3+3H_nH_n^{(2)}+2H_n^{(3)})}^{G1}-3 (overbrace{H_n^2+ H_n^{(2)})}^{G2}}{2n(2n-1)(2n-2)}.$$



A wise next move would be to split the series into 2 series using the groups $G1$ and $G2$ and try to calculate the resulting series like that. In the mathematical literature there are nice, useful representations for those harmonic numbers groups.

    The series related to G2 are manageable. Then we may perform a partial fraction decomposition and exploit the results of Xu, Yang and Zhang (Explicit evaluation of quadratic Euler sums) to compute two other pieces. The hardcore part is the evaluation of $$ sum_{ngeq 0}(-1)^n frac{H_n^3+3H_n H_n^{(2)}+2H_n^{(3)}}{2n-1} $$ which does not seem to be covered by classical results.

  • On the other hand such sum is related to $int_{0}^{pi/4}log^3(costheta),dtheta$ which has been computed by nospoon. Can you provide the derivation of the identity above in full detail? I believe I might be able to turn it into a complete solution. (+1) in the meanwhile.

  • Perfectly fine. You are probably already aware of it, but consider that the integrals $int_{0}^{pi/4}log^mu(cos t),dt$ and $int_{0}^{pi/4}log^mu(sin t),dt$ for $muin{0,1,2,3}$ are known, even if WA does not return them in a nice closed form.
